Pros

Before we became rexel, things were good. We had great staff on the ground but now lots of our best guys have gone to competitors due to money and working conditions. Also great head office staff who have now left, two amazing ladies in finance who were worth their weight in a gold and the only worthy recruiter we had who actually had a personality and cared about us. We almost always got paid on time, and not working weekends is good.

Cons

Stuck up, better than you mentality of some of the regional teams, and stupid policies implemented by head office who then never answer their phones. Bonuses and incentives are always wrong.

Pros

Decent company benefits and strong talent at the branch and sales level.

Cons

Gulf regional leadership is not effectively supporting the revenue-producing teams closest to the customer. What often presents as process, training, or accountability instead creates confusion, frustration, and reporting burden for branches and salespeople. When metrics become the focus instead of the support system, they inundate the field with activity, hinder execution, and create friction instead of progress. The company has talented salespeople, branch leaders, and field operators who understand the customers, markets, systems, and daily operating reality, but too many are underutilized while gaps are protected or explained away. That is how performance declines quietly: strong employees disengage, honest feedback gets filtered, and the company starts mistaking activity for execution. This is not a branch-level talent problem; it is a Gulf regional execution problem.
